The analyses were performed in separate and combined sequence data sets, with the Sapindaceae and Hippocastanaceae being selected as outgroups. It was indicated that the Aceraceae was monophyletic and D. sinensis was basal to the rest of the family but the two genera of it might be not monophyletic because Dipteronia dyerana was nested within Acer. The result inferred from the combined data showed greater resolution within Acer than that from the two separate data sets. The monophyly of most sections in Xu's system (1996) were supported with high bootstrap values, and some relationships between (or among) sections were also inferred, such as sect. Palmata and sect. Microcarpa; sect. Platanoidea, sect. Lithocarpa and sect. Macrophylla; sect. Integrifolia, sect. Trifoliata and sect. Pentaphylla; and sect. Acer, sect. Goniocarpa and sect. Saccharina (sensu Ogata). However, the sectional status and circumscriptions of some of the above-mentioned sections should be further adjusted. It seemed that the Xu's delimitations of sect. Rubra and sect. Saccharodendran should be revaluated.展开更多

[Method] The set of 17 biological traits of 24 Aceraceae species were observed and recorded. Taking into consideration aesthetic evaluation of different groups of people, the studied species were graded in quantitative scale. The species with higher overall score is considered better germplasm resource. [Result] The Aceraceae species with top ten highest overall scores were： Acer japonicum ＇Aconitifolium＇ （45.5）, Acer palmatum var. thunbergii （43.8）, Acer palmatum （41.8）, Acer elegantulum （39.2）, Acer elegantulum var. macrurum （39.2）, Acer rubrum （39.1）, Acer Cordatum（38.8）, Acer truncatum （38.3）, Acer olivaceum （37.7） and Acer acutum （37.3）. [Conclusion] The above ten species can be used preferentially as excellent Aceraceae germplasm resources for landscaping.展开更多
